Weather Briefing
IFRGaya Airport is currently reporting instrument flight rules (IFR) conditions with broken clouds at 10,000 feet and 4.5 km visibility.
Wind Analysis
Winds are from the west-northwest (290°) at 2 knots.
Visibility & Ceiling
Visibility is reduced to 4.5 km. IFR conditions prevail and an instrument clearance is required for operations in controlled airspace. The ceiling is 10000 feet AGL (broken), well above standard VFR minimums. Caution: cumulonimbus (thunderstorm) clouds reported at 3,000 ft AGL, indicating convective activity in the area.
Temperature & Moisture
Temperature is 37°C (99°F) with a dewpoint of 24°C, indicating relatively dry conditions. High temperatures at this elevation may result in significant density altitude effects. Pilots should calculate density altitude and adjust performance expectations accordingly.
Forecast Outlook
The TAF forecast covers the next 30 hours. IFR conditions are expected to persist or develop. An instrument rating and IFR flight plan are recommended. Expected weather includes: Haze, Light Thunderstorm Rain, Mist, Haze. Temporary IFR conditions are forecast with Light Thunderstorm Rain between 09:00Z and 13:00Z.
Pilot Recommendations
An instrument rating and IFR flight plan are required. Verify that destination and alternate approach minimums are above current and forecast conditions.
This briefing is generated from real-time METAR and TAF data. Always verify with official sources before flight.

About Gaya Airport
Overview
Gaya Airport (VEGY) is a medium-sized airport located in Gaya, India, serving the local region at an elevation of 380 feet MSL. Positioned at coordinates 24.744301, 84.951202, the airport features a single runway 10/28 with a 7,500-foot asphalt surface, capable of supporting various aircraft operations.
Flying Conditions
The airport experiences predominantly challenging instrument meteorological conditions, with 60% IFR and 34.9% LIFR conditions reported in historical observations. Temperature ranges from 4°C to 34°C, with an average of 20.8°C, and significant fog occurrence at 19.6%. Pilots can expect the most favorable visual flight conditions during January, September, and October.
Notable Features
Winds at Gaya Airport are predominantly from the northwest (315°) with an average speed of 4.9 knots and occasional gusts up to 30 knots. The airport records calm wind conditions 45.2% of the time, which can impact approach and departure strategies. The surrounding terrain and elevation may influence local wind patterns and turbulence.
Approach Considerations
Runway 10/28 demonstrates favorable wind alignment 100% of the time, with an average crosswind component of only 2.2 knots. This suggests consistent wind conditions that generally support straightforward approach and landing operations. Pilots should still prepare for potential instrument conditions and reduced visibility, particularly during periods with higher fog probability.
